Pathfinder Campaign Setting: Qadira, Jewel of the East (PFRPG)

I Get a Little Help From My Friends

We've all been there, whether by seeing it in a movie, reading it in a book, or experiencing it in your favorite tabletop adventure: the protagonists stride into the throne room, where the regal monarch greets them and says, “Hail, noble adventurers. Long have I sought heroes to assist me with this plot hook, and you may be the saviors I need.” That treatment may work well in a European-fantasy setting awash with minor kingdoms and desperate NPCs, but in Qadira, everyone knows somebody; there's rarely any need for a regional governor to rely on some no-name group of 9th-level adventurers, much less have any motivation to entrust them with important tasks.

Pathfinder Player Companion: Blood of Shadows (PFRPG)

The Shadows Know!

Shadow is a more than a mere absence of light in Golarion. It's a fundamental force, no weaker than the elemental energies, no less vast than the ethereal or astral planes, and far more common in everyday life than any of those esoteric materials. The Shadow Plane is a physical place, a colorless realm that serves as a dark reflection of the Material Plane, and its existence can mold and shape those within it. The fetchlings who dwell there are the descendants of Azlanti refugees, who over generations have been altered by constant exposure to its planar power until they are no longer truly human. Conversely, the wayang found on the Material Plane have been changed by their lack of access to the Shadow Plane, their pathways between their new lands and their original homes destroyed when the sun returned and the Age of Darkness ended.

Pathfinder Player Companion: Heroes of the Streets (PFRPG)

Down On Your Luck, Friend?

I know your sob story. It’s written on your face, same as everyone else’s. The world just rolled over and dumped you on your butt. Know you don’t know how to get a roof and three squares without a coin in your pocket, and don’t know how to put coin in your pocket without a good night’s sleep and a full belly.
